problems with recording automation envelope

Hello Forum

i wanted to work on a "parameter dump" for the clip envelope in m4l.
for now i just tried to observe one paramter, store it in a float object, and bang it to the device again when clip automation is enabled.
the problem is that it only works when i change the value which results in a parameter jump of the envelope.
would there be another way to do it without scripting (cause i cant do it)?
any advice highly appreciated!
